Abstract

A "pressure-cycle" fermentation process and fermenter wherein an oxygen-enriched gas containing at least 30% by volume is supplied to the fermenter downcomer (12) and the nutrient supply to the fermenter is such as to allow growth of the culture to continue in the downcomer. The process and fermenter may be used in the production of single cell protein using bacteria such as Methylophilus methylotrophus or yeasts such as Fusarium graminearum Schwabe.
